Striking up the Band
The CBC is on strike.
For those of you who don't know what the CBC is- it's like the NPR or the BBC. CBC Radio is a government funded crown corporation. It has two basic channels- the news/talk channel and the classical music channel.
Oh yes- and on Saturday evenings, CBC2- the classical channel becomes CBC3- the indie-rock channel.
I was driving to work this morning and turn it to CBC1 as I usually do to hear the news- and there was music. It took a few minutes to sink in- Oh yeah- the Strike! There was an energetic Hip-hop song that wasn't completely without charm on, so I left it there. Turns out a fellow named Chaos did it and got a Juno for his efforts- then there was Guess Who; then, out of No where: they play Niko Case (Of whom I am a big fan- regardless of how hot she is).
If they keep up with this great standard of Canadian Music- I hope the strikers never get their demands met!

it's k-os not chaos ;)
That talented young man is obviously a credit to his music genre- not to proper spelling techniques.
No pics of the wedding, and I think it's apparent, I don't care how this chaotic boy wants to spell his name. The issue is his music, which is not entirely distasteful- not his name or spelling of it.
Sheesh! Some people just can't get perspective!
